The Pokemon Company has announced a competition that ties together Pokemon Art Academy and the Pokemon Trading Card Game. Using Pokemon Art Academy, players can submit their own TCG illustrations to a panel of judges made up of real Pokemon creators. They will choose the six best entries and turn them into TCG cards.
Between February 18 and March 29, players can submit entries through the Miiverse to be judged by the panel. The six winners will each receive 100 versions of their own custom card, though it won't be added to any packs or be allowed in official tournaments.

There are two categories participants can submit entries to: Your Favorite Pokemon and Dress-Up Pikachu. The former asks fans to create their own artistic impressions of any Pokemon, while the latter requires you to make a new outfit for the franchise's most famous character (inspired by the special Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Cosplay Pikachu.)
Here are the official steps on how to enter:
- Create and save an image in Pokémon Art Academy using Free Paint mode.
- Select the "Share" option from Pokémon Art Academy's main menu and connect to Miiverse.
- Select the "Post to Competition" option and select "I Agree" if you agree to the Official Rules.
- Highlight the category you'd like to enter (Dress-Up Pikachu or Your Favorite Pokémon) and then choose "Select Competition". Only the first post you make will be recognized as your entry.
- Slide over the image and select it and then choose "Share Selected".
- Enter a title to accompany your artwork in the comment field and then select "Post". The image will be posted to Miiverse and entered into the competition.
- The only way to enter the competition directly is from the Pokémon Art Academy game, available exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.
